And yeah, that's the kit. With the blocks removed, you will sit very similar to mine. Not radical, but like mentioned "that nice lowered look".
Talk with the vendors here for deals to be sure.
You have a great looking truck!

One other question did you use shims for the pinion angle? Belltech said I didn't need it but while I was on a site pricing stuff out it popped up that for that kit it was recommended to use a 2* or 2.5* shim, can't remember specifically. Thanks

Hey Murph. Like I said, I had it installed. I am quite sure he had to shim. Ask the dealers here. Shims are cheap. So is the Tranny block. (maybe return them if you don't use them?) I'd have them on hand, and a decent gauge to check angles. I've done shafts before with a gauge and string. have both on hand.
Ask our dealer friends here on the site. They've been doing these for ages, and have a ton of good advice.

Hey Jimaa... Do you tow much with your truck?? I am really considering lowering mine next spring, but I tow a 6k enclosed work trailer quite often and wanna make sure I still can...

Finally had some nice weather, so I washed the truck at home for probably the last time until spring - snow will be here soon...
I just wanted to post these pics for anyone wanting to see the final height of a 2/3 Belltech Shock/ shackle drop on a four wheel drive. Not too bad for a 4x4 with the stock 20's on it (ugly as they are...)
SgtDOC-have a look at the rear wheel close up to see the wheel well liners. They add a nice touch.
No more work until next spring!

Yeah...I loaded it full of a bunch of stuff and took it to a friends. Not a ton, but a maybe 2-300 hundred pounds. No issues at all.
I'm looking at the rear sway in the spring as well, as I've been told by a member here that the sway will work with the Street Performance shocks perfectly.
And I'll be PM'ing you on the tune you did, in order to keep the thread on suspension drops...
